Hello! All mail Outlook stored on a network server. The server crashed. Accordingly disappeared and the Contacts folder. However, when sending a new message when you type the first letter of the address in the email Outlook offers a list of addresses with this letter. Obviously somewhere this list exists on the local computer. Whether it is possible find it and restore address book with its help? If so, how?

Copy the AutoComplete list to another computer
Automatically complete e-mail addresses AutoComplete is a feature which displays suggestions for names and e-mail addresses as you begin to type them. These suggestions are possible matches from a list of names and e-mail addresses that you have typed before, known as the AutoComplete name list.

You can copy the names and e-mail addresses in the AutoComplete list from one computer to another. For example, if you are upgrading to a new computer and don't want to lose all the information stored in the AutoComplete list, you can copy the names and e-mail addresses from your old computer to your new computer.

IMPORTANT You must exit Microsoft Outlook before starting the following procedure. The names will be included in the AutoComplete list when you restart Outlook.

On your old computer, choose one of the following:

Windows Windows 7 and Vista Go to drive:\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook.

Microsoft Windows XP Go to drive:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.

NOTE Depending on your file settings, this folder might be hidden.

How do I display hidden folders?

Windows 7 and Windows Vista

Click the Start button, and then click Control Panel.

Click Appearance and Personalization.

NOTE If you are using Control Panel Classic View, double-click Folder Options, and then go to step 4.

Click Folder Options.

On the View tab, under Advanced settings, under Files and Folders, under Hidden files and folders, select Show hidden files and folders.

Windows XP

Click the Start button, and then click Control Panel.

Click Folder Options.

Folder Options

Click the View tab, and then click the Show hidden files and folders option.

Right-click profile name.nk2, and then click Copy.

TIP You can copy the file to removable media, such as a floppy disk or a CD, and then copy the file to the correct location on your new computer. Or you can attach the file to an e-mail message and send the message to yourself. On the new computer, open the attachment in Outlook, and then save it to the correct location.

On the computer where you want to populate the AutoComplete list, choose one of the following:

Windows 7 and Windows Vista Right-click anywhere in drive:\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook and then click Paste to save profile name.nk2.

Microsoft Windows XP Right-click anywhere in drive:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and then click Paste to save profile name.nk2.

If the Outlook user profile name is different on the computer where you are moving the .nk2 file, you must rename the file with the Outlook user profile name that is being used on the new computer, after you copy the file to the correct folder. For example, if you move Kim Akers.nk2 from the original computer with an Outlook user profile name of Kim Akers, and you copy the Kim Akers.nk2 file to the new computer, you must rename the file with the Outlook profile name that is being used on the new computer.

When prompted about replacing the existing file, click Yes.

Open Outlook to view the changes to the AutoComplete list.
 
You need to find on your local computer (most likely somewhere in Documents and Settings) the local copy of the network folder (with the extension. ost unlike personal folder (. pst extension). This file convert to pst format. The output will receive the pst, which will make the import in .csj personal folder. So maybe will be able to restore the contacts.
Also look at this resource and read recommendations. Maybe you'll find a solution.
